[1.1.57] Multiple identical fluid outputs displays fluid as mixed if one output has another fluid as input

Lengthy title, but a picture is worth a thousand words:
Here you can see I connected the lubricant to one of the water outputs of Space Exploration's Decontamination Facility and as you can see the pipe connected to the other fluid output says that there is lube in the system even though there is no possible way for the lube to move to that pipe.
Then don't connect a the wrong fluid to the wrong output you might say. But the same problem applies when placing buildings against each other:
Here two Mechanical Facilities touch each other with a different fluid output and even though those two fluids can't move in any pipe, it still messes with the other two fluid outputs.
The main problem with this in some cases can lead to the "Can't mix fluids" error message even though you aren't mixing fluids, the game just thinks you are.
Obviously this only happens in modded games since no vanilla building has multiple identical fluid outputs as far as I'm aware.
Mods used: Space Exploration mod pack.
